Subject: Wonderful Fiction Made Accessible

I used to collect pulp magazines and comics, but actually reading pulps from 70+ years ago is a questionable practice. Not only had the yellowing of the pages made them hard on the eyes, but some were just plain falling apart. Internet Archive has done a great service in putting wonderful works of fiction in an accessible format. You not only get the works of the Weird Tales gang--Robert E. Howard, H.P. Lovecraft and crew--but a lot of unusual and entertaining work that has probable never been reprinted. It is possible to download them directly to Kindle Fire.
